There may be several areas where temporary files are stored and some are hidden.

I would guess the pictures were downloaded, but I may not understand your exact situation.

If you want to delete those, click on safety > delete browsing history (ctrl+shift+del)
But if you want to keep some cookies which are important and delete the rest , try CCleaner - Download.

Btw, I think firefox is more efficient than IE
